Public bug reported:

Currently, the Gui displays nested classes entirely separately from the
classes that contain them. It would be more natural to display them as
children of the enclosing class. When the enclosing class is selected,
all nested classes will execute.

If the enclosing class is not itself a test fixture, then there is no
further affect.

If the enclosing class is a test fixture, then this will also impact the
order of test execution, whether the Gui is used or not. Nested fixtures
will execute only after the setup for the enclosing fixture completes.
They will not execute if that setup throws an exception. The enclosing
class teardown will execute only after all the teardowns for the nested
fixture complete. If the enclosing fixture contains test cases in
addition to the nested fixture, the order of execution between those
cases and the fixture is not defined.
